Challenge Story 2

Akatsuki's Team 7

Story idea given by Demon Naruto 117

Alright everyone, here's my next Naruto story challenge. Hopefully I can fulfill a few more or I'm going to be the biggest loser on You Tube. Yes, this is a bet by a friend of mine and I'm in over my head. To many fans, to many challenges. But I'm sticking to my word. This story idea was sent to me by Demon Naruto 117. Enjoy.

Naruto Uzumaki was Konoha's Jinchuuriki. Inside of him lies the Kyuubi, the Nine Tailed Fox. It's been 15 years since the fox attacked the village. The Akatsuki have captured nearly all of the demons, but lost members in return. Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori, and Deidara, all gone. Naruto's new squad, consisting of Yamato, Sai, Sakura and Kakashi, have had many run ins with Akatsuki. Sai was part of Danzo's Anbu Root division. Unfortunately, Sai was ordered to bring Naruto to him at once. He refused and other Anbu took his place. Naruto was tied up and thrown in front of Danzo.

"What the hell is this!" Naruto yelled, looking back at the 2 Anbu that attacked him and dragged him here. He's never been here before, but he already didn't like it. Especially not the voice that followed.

"Naruto Uzumaki. I take it your wondering why you're here." Naruto was shocked and looked at the source of the voice. He saw Danzo and got pissed. "What the hell do you want!" Naruto yelled angrily.

"I suggest you watch your tongue boy. Now lets get down to business." Danzo said. "As you know, I have a lot of power in the village. I have taken it to the village elders that you be stripped of your ninja rank and be under Anbu watch at all times."

"What?" Naruto asked. He was shocked.

"They are going to decide soon. However I can easily drop my request."

"Yeah right. Like I'd believe you'd do it for free! You only love power and will do anything to get it!" Naruto yelled.

"You're right. I wont do it for free. You see, the Akatsuki are getting far too powerful. After capturing 8 of the Jinchuuriki, they are feasibly the most powerful organization in the world. However, I found that by destroying the device used to capture the demons, you reduce their power to 0. I want you to be the one to do it." Danzo said.

"You can go fuck yourself! Like I'd ever listen to you! You can strip me of my ninja rank and place all of the anbu on me! I'm still going to become Hokage!" Naruto yelled.

"What if I said that you weren't the only one who will lose your rank?"

"What?"

"You're teammate, Sakura Haruno."

"No! Tsunade-Baa Chan would never allow that!" Naruto yelled.

"I have already taken that into consideration. However, she can be over ruled if the ninja in question has broken a rule. In fact, she can be put to death for the rule she has broken."

"NO!"

"The Third Hokage placed a law over Konoha that anyone that speaks of the Kyuubi being sealed inside you is put to death. Sakura Haruno has not only spoken of it, but told someone of another village. Do you want to risk her death?"

Naruto sat their quietly. He could never risk Sakura's life. 'I have no choice. I can't risk them killing Sakura. This guy's a total asshole! But he has me up against a wall. Theirs only one thing I can do.' Naruto thought. He bowed his head low so Danzo couldn't see him. "I'll do it." Danzo's didn't express joy over him agreeing to do his bidding. He kept the same, cold expression.

"Good. One of my anbu has located an Akatsuki base just outside Kirigakure. You will leave immediately. If you tell anyone of you're mission, I will see to it that you and your friend are executed. You have an hour to pack and you are not to talk to anyone. Dismissed." The anbu grabbed Naruto and lifted him to his feet. They dragged him out of the Root HQ and dropped him off at his house. They untied him and just as quickly, left. Naruto started to pack up some scrolls, weapons and food for the trip.

'Might as well get this over with. The faster this mission is over, the better.' Naruto thought. He finished getting ready and left. 5 days later, it seemed to be well known that Naruto was missing. Tsunade was the last to find out. She was working on some paperwork in her office when someone barged in. "Tsunade Shishou! Naruto's missing!" Tsunade looked up quickly from her paperwork to see her apprentice Sakura.

"What!"

"He's not in the village. I've checked everywhere. He's gone!"

"Damnit! Where the hell could he be!" Tsunade yelled. As if on cue, Danzo and the same 2 Root Anbu from before appeared in her room. Tsunade was surprised and aggravated all at once. "What are you doing here Danzo!" Tsunade yelled.

"Calm yourself Tsunade. I'm just here to tell you the whereabouts of that Jinchuuriki of yours." Tsunade immediately caught on.

"What the hell did you do to him?" Tsunade asked, gritting her teeth. She knew how Danzo trained and used shinobi to do his dirty work. If he was involved with Naruto, it couldn't be anything good.

"I've done nothing. I just sent him on a little mission is all. You see, my Root Anbu have located the main Akatsuki hideout where their storing the demons."

"You…you sent him to the Akatsuki?" Tsunade was bewildered. "What the hell is wrong with you! You know the Akatsuki are after the Kyuubi and you sent him straight into them!"

"It's the only thing that could destroy that machine. If he falls into their hands, than he was not worthy of being a Jinchuuriki." Danzo explained. Now, Sakura was getting angry too.

"You bastard!" Sakura yelled. Tsunade, Danzo and the 2 anbu looked at her. "Don't you dare talk about Naruto that way! And how dare you go behind the Hokage's back and assign Naruto a dangerous mission! If he get's hurt, I'll….I'll KILL YOU!"

"I suggest you watch your tongue. You're just like the Kyuubi child." Danzo turned back to Tsunade. "This is strictly between us Tsunade. If you try to take this to the council, I will be sure to have your apprentice executed on the spot." Sakura and Tsunade were shocked. "Before you ask, it appears your apprentice has broken a very important rule. One regarding the Kyuubi."

"You don't mean."

"That's right. If this reaches the council, you're apprentice will be put to death for both speaking of the Kyuubi's sealing as well as speaking of it with another village." Tsunade gritted her teeth again. She was pissed off by now.

"Danzo….you better hope Naruto makes it back alive or you'll regret it." Tsunade said. "Now leave my office!" Tsunade yelled. Danzo left in a cloud of smoke with his anbu. Sakura still looked extremely worried. Tsunade took noticed.

"Sakura. You have to have faith in Naruto. He'll survive. He's too stubborn to die." Tsunade said. Sakura nodded.

In the Akatsuki hideout, Naruto was making his move. He managed to sneak into the hideout without being caught and was now behind the statue. 'Okay. First use my shadow clones to divert their attention, than destroy the statue with Rasenshuriken and get out of here.' Naruto thought.

"It seems we have a guest Itachi." Kisame said.

"It seems we do. Come on out, Naruto."

'Damnit! Busted! Time to make my move now!' Naruto thought. He created several shadow clones and started to form the Rasenshuriken. "Fuuton: Rasenshuriken!" He threw the jutsu at the statue and broke it. All the demons inside were released and immediately disappeared. Naruto smirked, but found himself surrounded by the Akatsuki.

"It seems you've destroyed our Demon container." Pain said.

"That's right! Now you have no way to capture the demons anymore!" Naruto yelled.

"I wouldn't say that. We may not have the demons anymore, or a way to retrieve them, but…." Pain stuck out his hand toward Naruto. "We do have a way to make you join us."

"I'll never join you!" Naruto yelled. He was about to fight back but found himself held down by Kisame and Itachi. "You don't have a choice." Pain said, and placed his hand on Naruto's head. Chakra started to strike at his brain and it felt like his head was being ripped apart. Pain's expression was cold. "Unholy Corruption." Pain said. Naruto yelled in pain and fell to his knees.

"Now. What do you know of Konoha?" Pain asked.

"I….have no knowledge of Konoha…..Lord Pain." Naruto said, darkly. Pain merely smirked. "Perfect."

5 days passed by, and no one has seen or heard from Naruto. They were starting to get worried when Jiraya brought home some news about the Jinchuuriki. He barged into the Hokage's office, disrupting her work.

"Damnit Jiraya! What the hell do you want!"

"It's Naruto! He's been captured by the Akatsuki!" Jiraya yelled. Tsunade looked shocked beyond belief. 'No' Tsunade thought. "Bring Sakura here….now." Tsunade said, weakly. About 10 minutes later, Sakura appeared before the Hokage.

"You called for me Tsunade Shishou?"

"Sakura….I'm sending you on a mission….alone."

"What for?"

"It's Naruto…he's been captured."

And done. I'm rushing to get this challenge uploaded now. This one wasn't so rushed on my part but now I have to book it. Later!
